[Enteral tube feeding of small animals in practice: nasoesophageal tube and percutaneous gastrostomy tube].
Enteral force feeding via a feeding tube is a widely accepted, but rarely used technique in practice. Two simple methods are discussed: the nasoesophageal tube, which can be positioned quickly without the need of general anaesthesia for diseases of predictably short duration and the percutaneous gastrostomy tube, which is placed blindly under short general anaesthesia without endoscopic or surgical procedures and which is designed for month long force feeding.
